Ten Mile Run is a tributary of the Millstone River, draining an area in southern South Brunswick and southern Franklin Park, New Jersey in the United States.
Its name is derived from the distance early surveyors estimated it was from the Raritan River on the historic Kings Highway, now Route 27.
Ten Mile Run starts at 40°24′39″N 74°35′27″W / 40.41083°N 74.59083°W, near the intersection of the Georgetown-Franklin Turnpike and Route 27. It crosses Route 27 and Gateway Boulevard. It then runs through the edge of a residential development and crosses New Road. It then joins several other tributaries that come from the development. It crosses Route 27 again, where it is marked with a sign. It follows a course roughly parallel to Bunker Hill Road and flows through Bunker Hill Golf Course. It crosses Butler Road and receives more tributaries. It flows through the T&C Preservation Land adjacent to the Delaware and Raritan Canal and drains into the Millstone River at 40°27′28″N 74°35′29″W / 40.45778°N 74.59139°W.
